Eurogroup Chief Search Kicks Off With Donohoe in Prime Position

The Eurogroup is about to kick off its search for a new president, with Paschal Donohoe seen on track to win a third term, a feat that would make the Irishman the second-longest-serving chair of the euro zone’s finance-chief meetings.

Ministers from the 20 countries are set to approve the plan to elect a new head when they meet in Luxembourg on Thursday. They have less than a month to decide, in time for the end of Donohoe’s current 2 1/2 year term in mid-July.
